randomnut Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 Ok now this is really starting to annoy me. I use wax to style my hair as its the only thing that gets the messy look im after. But when i take a shower and wash my hair later, the s**t dont come out lol. Well half of it does. but it leaves enough residue to weigh my hair down and is really noticible. and washing several times doesnt work, it only comes out after several washes, like once a day so to get it all out takes maybe 3 days. What am i doing wrong? Ive even tried having the water really hot to try and 'melt' the wax a bit lol. It happens with all brands of wax :( Any ideas? thanks Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/172777-how-to-get-wax-out-of-your-hair/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiffer Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 I would also like to know, what brands are you using ? Alot of these "Cheap" brands are really bad for the hair Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/172777-how-to-get-wax-out-of-your-hair/#findComment-2193837 Share on other sites More sharing options...
someguy123 Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 i use wax, and i dont have any problem getting it out with one wash. but when i'm in the shower i keep turn the hot water up, so maybe its the really hot water that doing the trick. also you could try switching brands..

randomnut Posted May 31, 2004 Author Share Posted May 31, 2004 lol ok in response to all the replies (all of which is in my origional post .... ) I do use shampoo .. and several washes in the shower doesnt work, what does work is like once a day washing and takes maybe 2 - 3 washes (/days) to get my hair completely clean. Does no one else seem to have the problem of wax staying in hair? lol I like the waxed messy style, what other products (that can be bought in england) give the same effect? thanks Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/172777-how-to-get-wax-out-of-your-hair/#findComment-2194641 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaRSightxc2 Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 (edited) Hot water and a lot of scrubbin' will get it out! A normal shampoo will should do the job, it just may take a while :whistle: As for what I use, I just steal my brothers 'Tony and Guy' stuff. Apparently its quite expensive. Either that, or i'll buy whatever I see first in the shop that doesn't cost as much as a small country. Wax or gel - I am not really bothered. Dax and Fudge are good too, apparently :) Edited May 31, 2004 by farsightxc2 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/172777-how-to-get-wax-out-of-your-hair/#findComment-2194688 Share on other sites More sharing options...
